She didn’t get much of a bounce from “Precious,” but Paula Patton did land the lead in this romantic comedy about a lovelorn stewardess who re-connects with her exes (her “baggage”) to see if anything of them is marriage material. And free to be her date to her younger sister’s wedding.
Taye Diggs, Derek Luke and Djimon Hounsou are among the suitors.
Jenifer Lewis is the mama. With Adam Brody as the obligatory GBF.
“Baggage Claim” — cute premise, good title — opens this fall.
